GERMAN FAILURE
IN OUTFLANKING MOVE AGAINST TULA. LONDON, November 15. Colonel Musmin, in an article in a Moscow newspaper, expresses the view that operations at the front will soon be brought to a standstill because of the weather, and he warns the population in the frontier areas to form ski patrols against the German ski detachments who are sure 1 to attempt raids pending resumption of the offensive in the spring. Many risoners who have been taken on different parts of the front have frost-bitten hands and no winter clothes, states a dispatch from Moscow. The “Pravda” says that the attempts to outflank Tula have failed. A German infantry division in two days has lost 1000 officers and men, and in the recent fighting 100 tanks and 25 planes have been destroyed in the approaches to Tula.
